<br />
Bahamian artist <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Bahamian Trae</span> has reached a major career milestone after securing his <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">first official publishing deal</span> with his single <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">“Act Out.”</span> The track has been licensed for use in the feature film <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Pages of My Heart</span>, which is now streaming internationally on <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Tubi</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Amazon Prime Video</span>.<br />
<br />
This placement marks Bahamian Trae’s first entry into the world of music publishing and sync licensing — a significant step that expands his reach beyond traditional streaming platforms and into film and visual media.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">“Act Out” Featured in Pages of My Heart</span>  <br />
Originally released as a standalone single, “Act Out” now plays a key role within the film’s soundtrack, connecting Bahamian Trae’s sound with a cinematic storyline viewed by audiences worldwide. Film placements like this are highly valuable, allowing music to reach new listeners organically through storytelling.<br />
<br />
With <span style="font-style: italic;" class="mycode_i">Pages of My Heart</span> available on both Tubi and Amazon Prime Video, Bahamian Trae’s music is now exposed to millions of viewers across multiple territories, strengthening his global presence as an emerging Caribbean artist.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Why This Publishing Deal Matters</span>  <br />
Landing a publishing deal is a crucial achievement for any independent artist. For Bahamian Trae, this deal represents:<br />
• His first officially licensed film placement  <br />
• Entry into music publishing and sync opportunities  <br />
• Increased visibility across international streaming platforms  <br />
• Long-term royalty and catalog value  <br />
<br />
Publishing placements also signal industry readiness, positioning Bahamian Trae for future opportunities in film, television, advertising, and digital media.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Caribbean Talent on the Global Stage</span>  <br />
Bahamian Trae’s success highlights the growing demand for Caribbean artists in international media. As more films and streaming productions look for authentic, emotional music, artists from the region are finding new pathways to sustainable careers beyond traditional music releases.<br />
<br />
This placement is another example of how Caribbean music continues to cross borders and platforms, reaching audiences far beyond the region.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">From Barbados to Maryland: Archangels Ink Opens First Location in Hyattsville</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">SUMMARY</span><br />
What started as a Barbados stay has come full circle into a powerful new chapter of Caribbean-connected entrepreneurship. One of our very first Barbados Experience guests has officially opened <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Archangels Ink</span>, a <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Black woman-owned tattoo studio</span> located in <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Hyattsville, Maryland</span>, bringing premium artistry, intention, and community into a space that’s often underserved.<br />
After spending time in Barbados months ago — where we first connected and captured photos together — she’s now launched her own brick-and-mortar studio in the DMV area, creating opportunities not just for herself, but for other tattoo artists as well.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">THE STORY</span><br />
<br />
Archangels Ink isn’t just another tattoo shop. It’s a carefully built creative space led by a Black woman who understands both the artistic and cultural importance of ownership, representation, and quality.<br />
The studio officially opens with:<ul class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Three resident tattoo artists currently available for booking</span><br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Premium tattoo services offered directly by the owner</span><br />
</li>
<li>A focus on professionalism, clean aesthetics, and intentional design<br />
</li>
</ul>
From Caribbean roots and connections to U.S. business ownership, this is a reminder that the Caribbean diaspora continues to build globally — quietly and confidently.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">WHY THIS MATTERS</span><br />
Black woman ownership in tattooing is still rare, especially at the studio-ownership level. Archangels Ink adds:<ul class="mycode_list"><li>Representation<br />
</li>
<li>Opportunity for artists<br />
</li>
<li>A safe, professional space for clients<br />
</li>
<li>A blueprint for creative entrepreneurship<br />
</li>
</ul>
It’s also a testament to how travel, cultural exchange, and relationships can spark long-term impact.<br />

The studio officially opens with:<ul class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Three resident tattoo artists currently available for booking</span><br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Premium tattoo services offered directly by the owner</span><br />
</li>
<li>A focus on professionalism, clean aesthetics, and intentional design<br />
</li>
</ul>
From Caribbean roots and connections to U.S. business ownership, this is a reminder that the Caribbean diaspora continues to build globally — quietly and confidently.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">WHY THIS MATTERS</span><br />
Black woman ownership in tattooing is still rare, especially at the studio-ownership level. Archangels Ink adds:<ul class="mycode_list"><li>Representation<br />
</li>
<li>Opportunity for artists<br />
</li>
<li>A safe, professional space for clients<br />
</li>
<li>A blueprint for creative entrepreneurship<br />
</li>
</ul>
It’s also a testament to how travel, cultural exchange, and relationships can spark long-term impact.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Releasing music independently as an artist from <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Barbados</span> or the <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Caribbean</span> is easier than ever thanks to platforms like <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">TuneCore</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">DistroKid</span>. <br />
<br />
These services enable you to distribute your music on major streaming platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal, while also allowing you to receive payments internationally. Here’s a breakdown of how to get started and the benefits of using these platforms over traditional label distribution.<br />
<br />
Step-by-Step Guide to Releasing Music via TuneCore or DistroKid<br />
<ol type="1" class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Create an Account</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Go to <a href="https://www.tunecore.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">TuneCore</a> or <a href="https://www.distrokid.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="mycode_url">DistroKid</a> and sign up. Both platforms allow artists from Barbados and other countries to register and start releasing music globally.<br />
</li>
<li>You’ll need to provide some basic information, such as your name, artist name, and contact details.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Upload Your Music</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Once registered, you can upload your tracks in the appropriate format (usually WAV or MP3).<br />
</li>
<li>You’ll also need to provide information like track title, release date, album art, and any other metadata required by streaming platforms.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Select Platforms for Distribution</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Both TuneCore and DistroKid allow you to distribute your music to various platforms including <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, Amazon Music, Deezer, YouTube Music</span>, and more.<br />
</li>
<li>You can choose which platforms you want to release your music on, or opt to release on all available platforms.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">International Payment Collection</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>One of the best features of both platforms is that they handle international payments. When your music generates revenue through streams, downloads, or licensing, TuneCore and DistroKid collect your earnings and pay you directly.<br />
</li>
<li>Payments are made via <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">PayPal, direct bank transfer, or check</span>, and you can withdraw funds from anywhere, including Barbados. Both platforms offer transparent reporting so you can track your earnings from different platforms and countries.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Market Your Music</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>After your music is live, focus on promotion. Use social media, email lists, and content marketing to drive traffic to your music. Both platforms offer tools to help you market, like Spotify pre-save links and artist profile management.<br />
<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
Benefits of TuneCore and DistroKid vs. Traditional Label Distribution<br />
<ol type="1" class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Keep 100% of Your Revenue</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">TuneCore</span>: While TuneCore charges an annual fee per release, you keep 100% of the royalties.<br />
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">DistroKid</span>: DistroKid charges a yearly subscription fee (with unlimited releases), but you also keep 100% of your earnings. This contrasts with traditional labels, which typically take a significant percentage of your revenue (sometimes 50% or more).<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Full Control Over Your Music</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>As an independent artist using TuneCore or DistroKid, you retain full control over your music. You can decide on release dates, cover art, and where your music is distributed. Labels typically have a say in these creative decisions, which can limit your artistic freedom.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Lower Costs</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Labels often recoup expenses for production, marketing, and distribution before paying the artist. TuneCore and DistroKid let you release your music for a small fee, keeping the rest of your earnings in your pocket.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Faster Payouts</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>Traditional labels can delay payments due to lengthy processing times, especially when distributing internationally. With TuneCore and DistroKid, payments are processed regularly (monthly or more frequently), ensuring faster access to your earnings.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">No Long-Term Contracts</span><ul class="mycode_list"><li>When signing with a label, you often have to commit to multiple albums or years of exclusivity. With TuneCore and DistroKid, you are free to release music at your own pace without being tied down by long-term contracts.<br />
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Conclusion</span><br />
<br />
For Barbadian artists looking to release music internationally, <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">TuneCore</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">DistroKid</span> are excellent platforms that provide full control over music distribution, faster payouts, and better revenue retention than traditional labels. These platforms also allow you to handle all aspects of your music career without the limitations that come with signing to a record label, giving you the freedom to grow your career on your own terms.<br />

<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">Barbados People’s Monarch 2024: A Vibrant Showcase of Caribbean Talent</span><br />
The rhythmic pulse of Barbados came alive during the exhilarating Barbados People’s Monarch 2024 competition. Held in association with the National Cultural Foundation, this annual event celebrates the island’s rich musical heritage and provides a platform for emerging artists, DJs, and producers to shine.<br />
<br />
 <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">The Grand Finale: Clash of the Titans</span><br />
In a thrilling showdown, two exceptional talents faced off in the Grand Finale. Tionne Hernandez, with her infectious track “Starta Pack,” went head-to-head with the unstoppable force that is Bruce Lee Almighty and his soul-stirring anthem, “Tomorrow.” The anticipation was electric, and fans across the Caribbean eagerly cast their votes to determine the true People’s Monarch.<br />
<br />
 <span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">And the Winner Is… Bruce Lee Almighty!</span><br />
<br />
Bruce Lee Almighty emerged victorious, capturing the hearts of listeners with his powerful lyrics and captivating melodies. His song “Tomorrow” resonated deeply, reflecting the hopes, dreams, and resilience of the Barbadian spirit. As the 2024 People’s Monarch, Bruce Lee Almighty not only claims the prestigious title but also walks away with a well-deserved &#36;15,000 prize.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">“Tomorrow”: A Musical Journey</span><br />
<br />

With every note, he invites us to embrace the promise of a brighter future, even in the face of adversity. The rhythm pulses like the heartbeat of the Caribbean, echoing the sun-kissed shores and vibrant culture that define Barbados.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">A Grateful Champion</span><br />
<br />
In an exclusive interview, Bruce Lee Almighty expressed his overwhelming gratitude. “Being in the final was a dream come true,” he shared. “I poured my heart into ‘Tomorrow,’ and the response has been incredible. Thank you to everyone who believed in me.”<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;" class="mycode_b">What’s Next?</span><br />
As the true People’s Monarch, Bruce Lee Almighty now carries the torch for Caribbean music. His victory inspires fellow artists to reach for the stars, collaborate, and create magic. We eagerly await his future releases, knowing that each note will carry the essence of Barbados.<br />
